C Plain Facts About Plain Carpets A plain carpet, having no sympathetic design to cover any dis- aell’nnciel in weuvin":gr crudities in color, more than any other floor covering, is compelled to stand absolutely upon the merit of the manufacturer—the high class of materials employed. The softness and uniformity of color, and the fact that it is made in widths wider than those customarily woven, demand the best effort of the expert dyer and manufacturer. For rooms where it is desirable to preserve the design interest and beauty of the drapery and furniture fabrics employed, a plain carpet of proper texture and color, with its absence of un- sightly seams, is unexcelled for use in either rug form or as a the floor covering. 1 The qualities mentioned below meet all the exacting demands of a dependable fabric. SEAMLESS CHENILLE CARPET obtainable in 3, 4.6, 6, 9, 12, 15 and 20 foot widths. SEAMLESS ENGLISH CARPETS obtainable in 9, 12 and 15 foot widths. There are various other qualities which can be secured in widths from 27 inches upward, at very moderate prices. All Jesirable colorings such as taupe, gray, mulberry, mole, etc., are now in stock.

A Head of Board of Directors Reports on Achievements " of Past Year. The sound basis on which the local Y. W. C. A. is administered, as set forth in the latest annual report of Mrs. Willlam Hamilton Bayly, presi- dent of the board of directors, is particularly emphasized by all friends of the organization in connection with its present special drive to meet the discrepancy between income and outgo for 1921. The sum needed, $10,- 000, sounds large, but when one con- siders the scale on which the “Y. W.” operates, and the small percentage of difference represented by these dol- lars, they appear trifling. Although the drive began only Friday, by mail, responses are already being received. It s an axiom that no Christian as- sociation Should be entirely self-sup- porting, Mrs. Bayly's report points out, and Washington's Y. W. C. A. lives up to that. On the other hand, 80 per cent of expenses is consldered by experts a fair income, and here the local “Y” is filled with pride, for last year it was over 90 per cent self- supporting, notwithstanding the fact that its annual budget has jumped from $54,000, in 1916, to $410,000, in Meals Very Popular. “Your purchase of the Adams build- ing is what put the Y. W. C. A. on the local map,” a progressive citizen has told the president. It looks as if he were right, for, on a conserva- tive estimate, between 1,500 and 2,000 people enter the building every day. Its cafeteria served no fewer than 361,089 meals in 1920 at an average cost of 38 cents a meal, while the cafeteria at the E street branch, with an almost entirely different clientele, was not far behind with 307,402 meals at 37 cents each. Through the rooms registry service 3,824 young women were directed to rooms during the year, this service being free. Religious Work Popular. Of course, religious work was orig- inally one of the prime factors in the activities of the assoclation, and it 8till so remains, despite its marked growth in other ways. During the year twenty-four regular Bible classes were conducted, while vesper services were held each Sunday afternoon both at headquarters and at the Elizabeth Somers annex throughout the year. ¢ch Wednesday 130 business girls who gathered for luncheon listened to inspirational talks. Records show an average of 673 participants in defi- nite religious activities each week in the year. The educational department prob- ably ranks next in importance. Dur- ing the past year 898 students were enrolled in classes varying in char- acter from cooking and millinery to art and languages. As for the girls’ work department, ministering to girls in their 'teens, 'Mrs. Bayly contends that one need only look in on it to see future committee workers and board members in process of develop- ment. 20,2690 Enjoy Swimming Pool. The popularity of the physical de- jpartment is readily understandable, while an indication of its extent is given by the fact that 20,269 girls availed ‘themselves of the excellent swimming pool of the E street branch. The heads of the “Y” seem to be shrewd and successful in business, Jjudging by the fact that the $80,000, representing the cost of the two buildings included in the Elizabeth Somers annex, purchased a little over three years ago. has been already re- duced “to $28,500, are within a few more years this plant should be en- tirely debt free. Although many of its patrons were seriously fll during the influenza epidemic .and at other times, not a death has occurred there. Visiting secretaries have stated that it is without a parallel among the boarding homes of the United States. Praises Work' of Secretaries. Mrs. Bayly takes occasion to pay high tribute to the staff of forty-two secretaries who, when the departure of Miss Florence M. Brown, general secretary, last spring, left them with- out a guiding head, chose a staff council of seven members from among themselves to take her place, and complicated and onerous jobs. Expres- sion of a feeling of deep appreciation of the way the trustees, -directors, committee workers and staff have supported the president of the board during the year closes a document which deals with the most successful ! zation.

This will be her first Wash- ington appearance and also will mark the debut of Mr. Nicastro. The pro- gram as originally arranged included Henry Weldon, the American basso, but an attack of pneumonia with which he was stricken Friday has ne- cessitated the substitution of M. Rocca.
